First, careful if you use this for a project as there are at least 2 NSFW words in there. Second, the advantage of the original Lorem ipsum is that, assuming you don't know Latin, you don't notice any individual words, so it disappears and you can focus on form. However, I should note that the actual hipster ipsum has more Latin strewn about and is not just hip terms. Couple notes.

Claws,Fangs,Scales,Wings,Fire. They were essentially the sum of all of our natural fears. I am starting to feel like "hipsters" are the same thing. Hipsters don't own any of the individual things listed and many of them apply to all sorts of groups. It's sort of like how Chinese dragons differ from European dragons. Someone who lives in New York has a completely different hipster in their head than someone who lives in Philly. I just wish the trend of classifying and commenting on "hipsters"would fade. I am starting to find it more annoying than the hipsters. My hipster dragon is anyone wearing flip flops and a scarf and/or wearing wayfarers.
